"West Shore Homes installed a new shower. They were so friendly and worked efficiently. I was expecting to have to clean up after they were done, but they did all of that for me. My new shower is beautiful and I am happy with the work that was done and each employee that I had contact with"

Tim was fantastic from start to finish! We found him on Angie's list called to set up an appointment for an estimate and he was able to come out the same day (3/10/15), we were so impressed with him and his estimate, we gave the go ahead that same night. Tim was upfront and said it may take up to 2 months to do the work - but a cancellation occurred on the weekend and he called and asked if we would be ok with him coming out on Monday. We said sure, especially since our son pointed out where a leak had occurred in our new kitchen ceiling. Tim said they would be here between 7:30 and 8 a.m. on Monday morning.

At 7:25 Monday morning Tim and his team showed up and started working right away, protecting our landscaping and just getting to it. I was impressed with how quickly they worked and how well they worked together. Tim said they would be done by 12:30/1 p.m. and I am sure they were.

The roof looks so much better without the chimney's and the ripples (from the age) and the smooth lines with no roof vents, it almost looks like a different house. Add the new seamless gutters and you have 2 very happy homeowners.

And it rained today - no leak in the kitchen! Absolutely Fabulous!

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

You’ll need two sizes of pipe to plumb a bathroom. You’ll use a 1/2-inch pressure pipe for your supply lines that run from the fixture to the larger 3/4-inch supply lines that run through the house. For drain lines, you’ll need a 3-inch PVC pipe for your toilet, a 2-inch PVC pipe for stand-alone showers, and a 1 1/2-inch pipe for a shower/tub combo and the bathroom sink. Each fixture’s drain will run to the 3-inch main drain that runs through the house.

In most cases, a dripping faucet will not stop on its own. Dripping usually occurs because of a failed cartridge or broken washers. Normal wear and tear eventually runs these parts down and causes the faucet to drip when you've already shut off your sink. Replacing the cartridge or washer should fix the problem.

To drain a broken toilet, place towels or plastic sheeting around the base in case of splashing or overflowing. Next, shut off the toilet’s water supply, usually via a valve on the wall behind the toilet. Begin flushing the handle to remove as much water as possible from the tank and the bowl. Don’t flush the toilet if it’s clogged, though. From there, use a large sponge to soak up any remaining water and wring it over a bucket. 

Boiling water helps unclog a drain, but usually only with a harder abrasive such as baking soda or vinegar. On its own, it isn’t the most effective tool. In addition, you shouldn’t use boiling water if you have PVC pipes, as it can soften or melt them. Use a plunger or enlist the help of a pro if you have plastic pipes.

Silicone caulk—despite having some adhesive properties—is not the primary thing that holds your sink in place. Rather, it seals the gaps around the sink to prevent water from leaking and causing issues with mold and corrosion. Most sinks are secured by clips, though some sinks are secured with two-part epoxy or brackets.
